Description
Genius Y Locus Branco 2018
Genius Y Locus Branco connects vineyard and earth to give you true expression of a specific place. Lemon green colour. Opens with a very elegant and fresh bouquet. The structured palate is at once thin and voluminous, with a present acidity persisting beyond each sip.
Blend of Alvarinho, Fernão-Pires, Verdelho and Arinto. The fruit comes from vines growing under the influence of a Mediterranean climate in the quartz-diorite with red clay soils of the Alentejo region in Portugal.
Manual harvesting of the fruit in 20kg boxes, then crushing and pressing. Fermentation and ageing in stainless steel.
